The Lyrics

This parody is a response to all the people who sue fast food restaurants, claiming they thought it was healthy for them after they (...gasp...) get fat from eating there everyday, even though they know good and well fast food is terrible for them.
Oompa Loompa, doompadee doo
I have a perfect puzzle for you
Oompa Loompa, doompadee dee
If you are wise you will listen to me

What do you get when you gobble fast food?
For every meal cause you're in the mood?
Suing McDonald's because you got fat?
What do you think will come of that?
I don't like the look of that

Oompa Loompa, doompadee dah
If you are not greedy you will go far
You will live in happiness too
Like the Oompa Loompa doompadee do
Doompadee do

Good idea, but you need to change it more, only one verse was different

Not too much different from the original intent at all

Common sense is not very common.

A little liberal on the parts from the original song, aren't we??

You only changed 1/3rd of TOS, but it's funny.

This parody is very clear and to the point! It tells facts about issues on suing restaurants for obesity. It would have to try to convince people to watch their diet and study self-control of appetite when they eat in restaurants, esp. fast food. I think it is very ridiculous for customers to sue fast food places for their obesity, don't you think? 555!!
